Triangle Poker

A friendly low-stakes home poker game near NC's Research Triangle.

Hey 👋 - I'm Matt and I moved from Orlando to Cary in 2019. Before moving here, I played in a regular low-stakes home poker tournament that I really enjoyed. I couldn't find a similar home game around here, so I started hosting one.

Check out the details below and if you’re interested in joining shoot me an email at matt@trianglepoker.com and I'll add you to the mailing list.

FAQs

What type of game?

Every week we play a $40 buy in + $20 rebuy no limit holdem tournament.

As people bust, we also start an optional $0.50/$1.00 dealer's choice cash game which usually winds up being about 50% no limit holdem, 40% no limit omaha, and 10% other games.

Weekly on Wednesdays at 7:30pm.

The tournament typically lasts until about 4 hours if you make it to the end. The cash game usually goes to around midnight.

Where is it?

Cary Park in West Cary.

Who can play?

It's open to anyone 21+: beginners and experts, men and women.
